I've only had this for a few weeks but it's my favorite so far. The size is great for soups and stews. it heats quickly and it does so without having to turn the burner on full blast. I also like the fact that it can be used on an induction cook top. The smooth bottom makes excellent contact with the cooking surface.

In learning to use this pot I've managed to scorch a few things. I just fill it with hot water and a little dish soap, leave it set for about 15 minutes. Whatever doesn't come off with the sponge gets sprinkled with a little baking soda, rub the remaining scorch spots and it looks like new again.

I'm very much a "senior" citizen so it is a bit heavy as all cast iron is so I just leave it on the stove instead of putting it in the cupboard. The pretty blue matches other things and just looks decorative.

I've needed egg storage containers for some time but never liked the idea of the containers that stored more or less than an even dozen. Finally found these that have room for exactly a dozen ea. I buy 4 doz. eggs at a time, transfer to these holders and am able to stack them to fit the fridge. The holders are a nice grade of clear plastic and the lid has little protrusions that keep it from sliding. Just perfect for my needs.

Being elderly, darn it, I've lost a lot of strength in my hands thanks to arthritis. I've had to call my husband to open most jars for me. The first time I used this jar opener the jar opened fairly easy. Trust me this will have a prominent place in my kitchen. Don't know why I waited so long to order it.

Our dining is very informal in front of the TV. Having the handle to hang on to is very helpful. We've only had them a few weeks but have already used them for soup, chili, ice cream and cereal. Such a nice size too.They also match my porcelain dinnerware.

Most of my old cookware does not work on the induction burner I purchased to use on the counter. When I found out All Clad would work I decided to start replacing the old with the new gradually because of price. This works beautifully so now I'm hoping to see more pieces of All Clad on sale to go with the two small skillets purchased previously.
